Boy Waiting for the Sunrise

This pre-sunrise photo was captured at Bakkhali beach, one of the popular weekend holiday destinations of West Bengal. Barely getting rid of my sleep, when I could drag myself up to the beach with my camera and tripod, there was only few sleeping cattle over the cold sand, a timid patrolling dog and this little gentleman patiently waiting for the daybreak! I tried to crack conversation with my only co-tourist but he seemed a greater introvert than me. Anyway, the kid was so still in his squatting posture that I could set my tripod at half dozen locations before I could settle with the perfect angle I was looking for. If you're looking for a beach retreat, the tinsel seaside town of Bakkhali with a seven kilometers long walkable beach line can be a good option.

He has been blogging since 2007, and the pen often runs out of ink, but thankfully the mystic spirit of traveling-clicking-storytelling always reconquers Anunoy before it gets too late! In his early childhood, Anunoy’s craving for backpacking was sowed by his father. He has been a rolling stone ever since, forming passionate bonds with motorcycle touring and photography to add more layers to his wander lust. Between see-sawing a small family and a thankless job, Anunoy Samanta manages to run his own photography cum travel blog- Clicking Photos on the Go.
